Ministries at First Gilmer

"My goal is to teach by exhortation and example that your personal relationship with Jesus Christ is the motivating force in all of life."

Ricky Rigsby - Associate Pastor

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Matthew 28:19-20

At First Baptist Church of Gilmer, we believe that serving in ministry is one of the most important ways that we can grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Did you know that once we profess our faith in Jesus Christ, we all become ministers? Becoming a victorious Christian is not a one-time event; it is a life-changing journey. As a church, First Baptist reaches out far and wide into the community and beyond to reach people for Christ and to help those in need. It takes a lot of people with many different talents to fulfill that vision.
